In the Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode that aired on 29th August 2024, One of televisionโs most popular shows took a dramatic turn as Akshara faced with choices in her life and relationships. With this as its key thematic moment, the episode dwelt on love and care, responsibility and sacrifice.
The episode kicks off with Akshara in introspection mode, having one hell of a day and is bewildered as she needs to make an important decision. Sheโs faced with a choice today that could either take her and Abhimanyu far or bring them closer. Her thoughts heavy and the tension thick in the air, Akshara considers what this choice could mean.
But, for Akshara it is the difficult task of managing her happiness to please both sides. She was never the one to be selfish, but this time it is difficultโฆ whether she has to follow her heart or fulfil what others are looking for. The series beautifully encapsulates this emotional battle that Akshara is fighting and I am sure most young Indians will relate with her situation.
He, on the other hand, is busy with his problems. So there is something bothering Akshara but he does want to add more stress on her, asking the traditional DIL only what happened. Although Abhimanyu definitely seems to love Akshara, he does not come right out and tell her as they both are aware that the final choice must be hers.
Through the episode we see Abhimanyu struggling with his inner turmoil. He is obliged to stand by Akshara, since she must also respect her own self-imposed rule and alert their children with 50 days left in the countdownโฆ but he can scarcely rest easy either. This hottie and the other guy do a phenomenal disregard of how much he loves Akshara.
While in this you must wonder what the family dynamics are that Akshara takes this step of becoming an ISRO scientist. This situation further complicates the ties between the Goenkas and Birlas. Akshara is aware of the fact that her decision will not only change how she shares a relationship with Abhimanyu but it also has an aftermath on both families.
In her father, Manish may be her first guidepost of life and we see that he provides some much-needed wisdom in this episode. He tells Akshara to choose carefully and do what will truly make her happy, not succumbing to pressure from others. This exchange between father and daughter is a beautiful moment during the episode that shows how crucial family can be during tough times.
And soon the episode reaches a stage, where Akshara decides to make choices. She reminisces the moments where she has travelled with Abhimanyu and the love they have shared together. But she also knows that no matter what, there will be casualties when the different dominoes knock into each other โ but although Akshara realises this too late, it is immaterial in the end for her; if those are girlish hopes soaked wet with foolish dreams about rightness and justice sound silly to you now then so accuses by a girl who does not know death: about dying.
Akshara finally takes the call in the last moments of one episode and just then an eye-catching cliffhanger pulls up, as it does not disclose who Akshara will choose. Thus, this cliffhanger also does well in holding onto us for us to know what Akshara clears up and backs her future along with Abhimanyu.
The plot of the story is on a new beginning and this episode one 29 August, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai takes us all for an amazing ride into what seems like yet another interesting chapter. Aksharaโs choice is bound to affect all, including what she decides with Abhimanyu and the Goenka vs Birla families.
This leaves the fans of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai wondering what Akshara chooses and turns over in upcoming episodes. The episode on Akshara is particularly upbeat owing to the emotional breadth and relatability of her journeyโa part that connects with love, choices and heart in a special way; one choice we all have had our troubles making at some point.
